Busy Busy Busy

Here is a pic of the Heidi Grace Cute cake kit on the site just now, very yummy!!

Been really busy this week with packing orders, looking after the kids and making teachers presents, yip kids finish up on Friday.
Gordon starts school in August, and not sure how I am feeling about that, I have been at home with either of them for the last 7 years, so think it will be a big shock to me. On the plus side it means that I will be able to work on the business a wee bit more and not be still working at midnight. I also plan to get back to the gym and get more scrapping done myself. mmmmmm will I achieve any of this do you think? update in September!!!!

And the good news - I was published in Scrapbook Magazine this week, in the readers album page. 4 of my projects were featured and I am over the moon!!!

The lovely Kirsty is up in Scotland this week so am looking forward to catching up with her.

Let's try again

OK here goes

I promise from now on I will update my blog at least twice a week (honest!!!!)

Have been very busy recently, am in the middle of the OU photo course and wow have I learned a lot! From aperature, Depth of Field, ISO you name it!
I even bought myslef a new camera, a shiney Canon Eos 400D, I just got the basic lens but I used to have an old film canon and now I have 3 lenses as the old ones worked. Now have my heart set on a macro lens, wonder what my chance are???

And the bestest news ever............. Lauren passed her level A language at school, she has been struggling a wee bit, so I am chuffed to bits with her!

Well kids went back on Monday, not v happy about it either!

I went back to the gym on Monday and am paying for it now, I ache everywhere.

Kept Gordon off nursery on Tuesday and we went to see my Grampa, or papa Toe as the kids call him (he had to have a toe removed whn Lauren was little so she called him papa No Toe, and it has become papa Toe, lol!)

Today I was busy packing orders and starting to get packed for the crop this weekend, we have Heather teaching a class for us, wait till you see it, v yummy!!!!

OK need to get on now so I leave you with a couple of pics I took of the kids at the park on Sunday.

Happy Birthday Baby!!!

5 years ago I went into hospital and an hour later had a baby boy in my arms, where does the time go? Cannot believe my wee boy is 5 already.

He watched the film Gremlins and had his heart set on his own wee Gizmo (thank you Amazon, lol), have attached a piccy of them cuddling.

On Saturday we are having a party for him and 40 kids are coming along, that will be fun, so if anyone wants to come and help, please do.......................................

Sleepy Angel

Yup that is me after our fabulous Luxurious Angels retreat, it was soooooooo good! The hotel was fab, lovely food, great company, wonderful classes, what more could you want??

I shared a room with Heather and she kept me up half the night talking, hee hee.

I need to say thanks to Roz, for being a great business partner, and yes we ARE having another retreat, watch this space.......
Thanks to Heather for teaching some fab classes and for being such a good if chatty room mate, thanks to Kirsty for coming all that way to teach and for the excellent camera class, loved it!!
Thanks to all the girls for coming along, especially Rod!! And to Clair for supplying some great tunes, we are going to miss you. Thanks to the rest of the girls for making our weekend so wonderful, and here's to the next one!!

And if you were running a book, I managed to do 4 LO's, I will upload them soon, just to prove it, OK away back to stock-taking

Stash, stash and more stash

Am sitting surrounded in stash, yummy!!!!
Need to get it all priced and then later today I will get another kit built for the retreat, as time is marching on.
Web site still not live, I will get there one day honest!!

Away to stitches on Monday morning, 2 days with no kids.............bliss!!!

The design Team

Design team chosen

They are Fruitysuet, RozRoz, Maggiemae, Cutnpaste, Gertie and hysteri-CAL

Thanks girls and welcome to the team!!

Flying out the door

The Hambly rub-ons and Overlays that I ordered are flying out the door, seriously if you want some of these, order now!!!!

My hire car was delivered this morning, and the garage called to say there was a lot more damage to my car than they first thought, and it will be in for at least 2 weeks. They will also valet it and clean it for me too! I must remember that the hire car takes Diesel!

Gordon still has a bit of a sore neck, and Lauren is still very white looking, tired and weepy. At least they are off for a few days next week so can rest a bit.

I leave you with another piccy of a Hambly overlay.......... Lush or what????

look what I have got

Will be on the site later

ouch!!

That is how I am feeling today, my shoulder and down my arm is so sore, and I have a splitting headache.
Kids were off today, but because they were in bed so late last night, they were really tired today, they did not actually get round to getting dressed at all.
Tried to help Lauren with some homework but she was just so tired, so gave up.

My head feels full of mince and so have not actually achieved anything today, have a box of stash arrive from the states today and have to admit to not actually opening it yet! So you will have to wait a bit longer to purchase, lol!!

Bad Car Day

Today my hubby was stranded in the house as he could not get the handbrake released from his Land Rover, someone came out to look at it, could not sort it either, so took it off manually and hubby then had to drive it to the garage and get a curtesy car.

So far so good.......................

Then coming back from swimming, we were sat stationary and Whack, someone thumped into the back of us. Took me a second to think, oh we have been hit.
Then the kids got hysterical and have to say so did I.

My car does not look too bad, think the bumper took most of the impact, but am sure it will be a lot worse.
We were all really sore, so took a trip to A&E to be on the safe side. And yes we were there for hours.

Will need to keep the kids off tomorrow as they have missed about 3 hours sleep.

Doctor says I have to expect to be pretty sore tomorrow and for the next few days, can feel my back getting bad already.

Away fro hot bath, some paracetemol and bed
